Who is this product for?

Designed specifically for:

• Accountants and internal auditors who include training quality in compliance reviews.
• Data analysts who need clean, structured datasets for trend analysis and forecasting.

• HR and L&D teams in Egypt and regional markets who prefer Excel-based tools with optional Arabic labels and local customization.

How to choose the right version

Pick based on scale and customization needs:

• Standard (single file): Ideal for small teams — ready-to-use, easy to edit, includes feedback form, scoring sheet, and dashboard.
• Pro (multiple sites / multi-trainer): Best for providers with many trainers and courses — includes summary roll-up, date filters, and export-ready reports.
• Custom (hourly service): If you need branding, advanced VBA automation, integration with HR systems or Arabic/English bilingual forms, order customization by the hour from ProXlsx’s services.

Quick comparison with typical alternatives

What you get here vs other approaches:

• Excel template: Low cost, fast deployment, fully transparent calculations, works offline.
• Online survey tools: Better for collection but usually need extra steps to combine responses and compute weighted KPIs.
• Custom software or LMS reports: Powerful but expensive and slow to change; our template fills the gap with speed and affordability.

Best practices & tips to get maximum value

• Standardize questions across courses to make scores comparable.
• Set clear weights aligned with business priorities (e.g., 40% delivery, 30% content, 30% outcomes).
• Combine with post-training assessment scores for a fuller picture of training effectiveness.
• Use the printable form for in-person sessions and the Excel data-entry sheet for central consolidation.
• Schedule monthly or quarterly reviews of trainers using the dashboard filters to detect trends early.

Common mistakes when buying/using trainer evaluation tools — and how to avoid them

• Mistake: Using inconsistent forms. Fix: Adopt the template’s standardized form and train administrators on consistent data entry.
• Mistake: Ignoring weighting logic. Fix: Align weights with measurable business outcomes so scores reflect what matters.
• Mistake: Expecting the template to replace LMS analytics. Fix: Use it as a complementary, auditable source of trainer-centric feedback.
